30s? You must have mighty big drives. :)

I recommend XFS, and have been using it solely for sometime on my desktop
machine at home. I've done the switch test with Netscape and Evolution
starting, a kernel compiling, and with huge indexed mail spool shuntage all
going on at once. It came up fine. I've also run some minimal PostgreSQL
testing on it, with great results. It has never taken longer than 5sec to
work itself out on bootup.

/dev/hda2 on / type xfs (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
/dev/hdc2 on /var type xfs (rw)
/dev/hdc3 on /home/music type xfs (rw)

As you can see, I've kinda made a commitment! I use the SGI CVS kernel,
which is reasonably regularly updated with Linus' kernel. I would have
preferred Alan's, but hey. ;)
